The Name Of Jesus!

Contributed by Tony Abram on Dec 17, 2019

If we cannot do something in His Name, most likely we should not do it. There are two hundred and fifty-six names given in the Bible for the Lord Jesus Christ, and I suppose this was because He was infinitely beyond all that any one name could express.

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 14, 2017

God uses the most insignificant things to make the most difference. It's true at Christmas, too!
